Prevalencia de resistencia bacteriana a los antibióticos en infecciones del tracto urinario en el Hospital Homero Castanier Crespo durante el periodo 2021-2022

Abstract

Introduction: bacterial resistance to antibiotics has increased significantly because of its indiscriminate use in both people, plants and animals, which has hindered the specific therapeutic for urinary pathology. Objective: to analyze the scientific literature on bacterial resistance to antibiotics in infections of the urinary tract. Methodology: correspondent to a narrative bibliographic review, through the collection of information through the use of databases, such as Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Dialnet, ResearchGate, SciELO themselves that were used from their introduction to the discussion and conclusions. Results: urinary tract infection is a global problem of great relevance that is of importance because of its resistance to the antibiotics most frequently used for its therapy, the prevalence of bacterial resistance is greater in those bacteria belonging to the gastrointestinal tract such as the case of E. coli and whose condition will be greater in the female gender as opposed to the male gender; studies also show that both in the United States and in developed countries, bacterial resistance has been shown to both ampicillin, amoxicillin / clavulanic ac., cotrimoxazole and ciprofloxacin which exceeds 20% tolerable in its empirical hospitable application. Conclusion: antimicrobial resistance is a growing global problem, whose consequences affect patients with urinary tract infection due to these etiological agents and may imply greater morbidity and mortality without adequate confrontation.
